Camera Menus

	The A200's menus (accessed by pressing the MENU button in any mode) are grouped into four sections; Record (2 pages), Custom (1 page), Playback (2 pages) and Setup (3 pages). The left and right arrows on the AF controller jump between menus while the up and down (or control dial) scroll through them.

Record menu

The record menu provides for configuration of settings which will affect the final image file as well as the behavior of some of the automatic settings. Many of the more common options can be accessed using the Function button or by pressing one of the direct access buttons, so there's not much need to visit this menu on a regular basis in everyday photography. The options for each item are revealed by pressing the center button on the multi-controller.
